I think that the Melbourne formula should include the following modifications

1. a Log [1] function to skew results towards the CBD so we see more interesting places and less bush, (as fun as the bush can be) [2]
2. ASX 200 [3] data, not the DOW [4]. Oi oi oi.

I agree totally, a smaller graticule closer around the CBD and surrounding suburbs would be much better. Too much bush! zorg

Well the point was I guess that we can still use both degree box graticule things ... just fudge the data a bit so we don't get muddy boots. Leave that to the 'hardcore' geocachers.

Given Melbourne's radial shape - why not use polar coordinates, with a wedge-shaped exclusion area for Port Philip Bay ... this would include the largest amount of homies with the least amount of bush time. Or am I reinventing the wheel here ... I just figure that if we're going to fuck around with the math to take the Sacred Dow's opening stat into consideration, we might as well do something about our schizophrenic graticules.

I have no idea how to implement this - only that it can be done ... The other option would be to use a half-graticule, centered over the CBD.
